Episcopal Church Women (ECW)

Flower Guild

It is a busy time for the Cathedral Flower Guild!

We are currently planning floral designs to be used throughout the season for the Cathedral’s various worship spaces, including not only regular Sunday services, but also weddings, baptisms, special altar dedications and festivals!

There is much to do throughout the week and we are always looking for new members who want to get involved with a fun group of men and women of all ages who enjoy fellowship while providing a beautiful service to the Cathedral. Whether someone loves flowers or doesn’t know a thing about them, there’s a place for you in the Cathedral Flower Guild.

To learn more, contact the Rev. Canon Cathy Zappa.

St. Anne's Guild

St. Anne’s Guild has three focus areas: Outreach ministry, social fellowship and spirituality. Our primary outreach ministry is the Cathedral Towers, where we are a ministry of presence with the residents, coming together for monthly events, with Rev. Canon Julia Mitchener as our spiritual guide. Our spirituality is shared through speakers, guests and programs. Our social fellowship is celebrated during our meetings, at biannual parties at members’ homes, and with other occasional outings. 

We meet monthly on Thursdays at 11:30 in the Gould Room. Date is speaker driven. Our age range is 50’s, 60’s and 70’s, but we welcome any age to join in.

Co-chairs: Kendrick Dopp and Laura Corrigan
Secretary: Cindra Brown
Treasurer: Anne Stacy
Outreach Chair: Sarah Murphy

St. Catherine’s Guild

St. Catherine’s Guild includes very active Cathedral volunteers who enjoy stimulating conversations about love, life and the pursuit of happiness! Our goal is to build relationships with fellow church members.

We are women in our 50’s/60’s with mostly grown children (or no children) who usually meet on the first Wednesday of every month, at 7 p.m. to share a meal and fellowship in members’ homes. Members’ significant others are invited to attend the Valentine’s Dinner in February.

Co-chairs: Kitty Conrad and Kim Flanagan

St. Clare's Guild

St. Clare’s Guild focus is fellowship, spiritual growth, and service. Our goal is to strengthen our faith and our bonds with each other as well as with our Cathedral family and community through a variety of fun social events, Bible studies, outreach opportunities, and other special events. We are a group of women at the Cathedral, primarily in our late 40s to early 60s. We invite you to join us for fellowship and be a part of this fun and meaningful group.

Joining St. Clare’s Guild is now super easy and all online! Pay the annual $30 dues online (Use the drop down menu to select St. Clare's) or by check with St. Clare's Guild Dues in the memo line. You will be included in our emails for upcoming events, announcements, and prayer requests.

Co-chairs: Julie Rief and Rena Ann Peck

St. Elizabeth's Guild

St. Elizabeth's Guild members are mostly women who enjoy participating in the life of the church through its varied volunteer opportunities. Our focus is on fellowship and learning. Each month, interesting speakers are invited to educate us about things spiritual and important to the Cathedral. St. Elizabeth’s main “in-reach” entity is the Gilham Grounds fund, originally endowed by one of our members, which maintains the Cathedral’s campus. Each year, we also choose an outreach entity to receive our support. We typically meet at noon on first Wednesdays in the Gould Room for lunch, fellowship, and to learn.

Co-Chair: Mary Semmes Wright

St. Monica's Guild

St. Monica's Guild welcomes all mothers, whether your child is 2 weeks old or school-aged, looking for fellowship. Our focus is spiritual growth, service, and relationships. Our goal is to strengthen our faith and bonds with each other as we navigate this crazy, exhausting, wonderful stage of life together.

Our gatherings are monthly and include social events, service projects and other special programming. Occasionally, we may have guest speakers and other events. Please join us even if you cannot stay the whole time or need to come late!

Co-Chairs: Lynn Wilmoth and Leslie Ogburn

St. Veronica’s Guild

St. Veronica’s Guild welcomes all women of the Cathedral at any stage in your life. Our focus includes mission, participation in worship, spiritual growth, a speaker series, and building lasting friendships. We support four vital Atlanta Episcopal ministries and have done so for over 20 years. Holy Comforter Episcopal Church Friendship Center, Crossroads Community Ministries, Church of the Common Ground, and Emmaus House are supplied with personal care items from our guild. We raise money to purchase these items in bulk from funds raised during our annual Epiphany Drive each January.

In addition to this ongoing outreach project, we help with additional needs for those and other worthy outreach ministries. We meet monthly (September through May) on the second Tuesday of the month at 10:30 a.m. in the Gould Room. Coffee and fellowship begin at 10 a.m.

Chair: Mary Rankin
